There are mornings I wake up smiling, and I sing and dance all day long!!! There is nothing like singing and dancing to keep my spirit up! I grew up dancing all the time! Not ballroom dancing, just joyful, carefree, party movements from cumbia to quebradita to whatever my body felt like doing!!! I always felt a bit out of place since my sisters were awesome at it!! Aida used to teach me all kinds of different types. She is great at leading and following! Gosh, just imagine spending 10 hrs a week dancing!!! What a pleasure, right? Not only is therapeutic it is an awesome exercise!!! I think I would be in optimal fit and health if I was still doing that! My awesome husband finally took pity on me and we started dance lessons. He used to think he didn’t like dancing and he couldn’t learn how to (since he believed he had 2 left feet =D ) instead he is finding out it is such a wonderful thing to experiment with. He is still a little shy because leading is a lot of work, thinking where to go, which is the next move and keep track of me! I am a lot of work!! But, he actually is good, if he could only relax, laugh and enjoy it without thinking he has to be awesome at it …. it would be the best ever!!! Tho, little secret, for me is already the best ever. Every class I smile widely, there are very few things in life that can lift my spirit like dancing and singing does …. Of course, I can not sing, mom used to say we, siblings, sounded like frogs in a puddle whenever we sang!! And we used to sing all the time!!! I think she just wanted a little bit of peace and quiet, who can blame her!!! Mom is really the best! Do you want to smile widely and feel life vibrant on your skin? Sing and dance like no body is watching!
